So much so that now, whenever Ethan met Ryan’s gaze, a chill ran down his spine.
But when it came to Samantha, Ethan had no intention of letting the matter go.
Ryan neither turned around nor spared Rose a glance to see whether she had been hurt. Instead, he said coldly to Ethan, “Get out now. Don’t make a spectacle of yourself here.”
Ethan glared at Rose through clenched teeth.
But he got to his feet anyway.
After all, this was the Robinson family’s territory. If he continued causing a scene, his grandfather—who was overseas—would never let him off the hook.
Rose watched as Ryan returned to Samantha’s side and said something to her. Samantha clung to his sleeve, completely dependent on him.
When Trevor received the news and hurried over through two halls, he found Rose standing against the wall with a slight frown. One hand braced against the wall while the other gently massaged her ankle, which she had lifted behind her.
Her ankle was already turning red.
Out of the corner of his eye, Trevor noticed Ryan standing protectively beside Samantha, clearly preparing to take her away.
Without hesitation, he strode over and scooped Rose into his arms.
Rose was startled.
“I’ll take you somewhere to sit and look at your ankle,” Trevor said.
Rose didn’t want to struggle in front of so many guests, so she simply thanked him.
Carrying Rose in his arms, Trevor walked past Ryan, who was still shielding Samantha.
Ryan’s expression remained cold from beginning to end.
He made no attempt to stop them and walked away without so much as a glance.
It was as if he and Rose no longer had any connection whatsoever.
Trevor quickly put an end to the disturbance before it could spread.
Ryan left with Samantha and the troublemaking Ethan.
Trevor sat Rose down on a sofa before kneeling on one knee in front of her. Gently examining her slightly sprained ankle, he said, “It’s nothing serious, but you should ice it. Wait here for a moment.”
Rose wanted to say it wasn’t necessary.
But Trevor had already gotten up to make arrangements.
So she remained silent.
Instead, she began thinking about Ethan.
Now that Ethan had returned, the situation had clearly become far more complicated.
Ethan, this notorious playboy, had been born into one of the wealthiest families and was the only son of his parents. Isabella and the rest of the family had spoiled him beyond measure.
As a result, Ethan acted without restraint.
Once he lost his temper, no one could control him.
Otherwise, he never would have ended up behind bars.
Unless Ryan committed to marrying Samantha, Ethan would continue causing trouble.
The Knight family was likely headed for chaos.
What interrupted Rose’s thoughts was Oliver’s voice.
Stepping forward, Oliver asked with an unpleasant expression, “Can we discuss something?”
Rose looked at him.
“Although I don’t know how you managed to become a professor at NYU, my grandfather admires you greatly,” Oliver said. “When you have time, I’d like you to come to the Brown family estate and meet him.”
Earlier, when his grandfather had heard the news about Rose, he had been delighted and couldn’t stop praising her.
Oliver knew that his grandfather wanted to meet Rose.
If he managed to bring her there, perhaps the punishment he had received for his failed investment would be lifted.
If he were truly exiled for more than a year, his uncles at headquarters would likely seize the opportunity to weaken his influence.
Rose knew that Mathew was pleased only because he knew it was her.
In truth, she had intended to visit Mathew herself someday.
But she would never do so through Oliver, nor would she intervene on his behalf.
She looked at him quietly.
